Fleabag's return to the West End (and it's stage roots) has been as triumphant as it's run on TV. What is next for Phoebe Waller-Bridge, other than a Bond Film, Killing Eve season three and a new film in the works?

, for which Waller-Bridge wrote the first season, won Best Television Series at the Golden Globes. And she has also been snapped up by cinema’s two most venerable franchises, having played a droid in a Star Wars film, and been brought in to work on the script of No Time To Die, the next James Bond movie. Recruited at the wish of star Daniel Craig to ‘polish’ the script, she is only the second woman in the 57-year history of 007 to get a writing credit.

And yet, despite an extraordinary six years, Waller-Bridge remains as fun, polite, enthusiastic and sweary as when she was flyering at the Fringe. She flatly refuses to play by celebrity rules. She isn’t on Instagram. She takes the tube. She has been in a relationship with the writer Martin McDonagh since early 2018, having divorced director Conor Woodman earlier that year.

She also writes brilliantly about women’s interactions with other women. It’s a hymn to the sisterhood, with. Waller-Bridge has never forgotten her own female allies, either. Once a month, she still makes sure she meets up with her gang – all women in film and television, including actors Jessica Knappett and Aisling Bea – to eat mac ’n’ cheese, drink wine and talk about life ‘until 4am’. ‘It’s one of those really lovely, trusted groups where you can just go, “Am I crazy or...?”’ she’s said.

The first sign they were meant to be... 'I haven't been asked a question in 45 minutes' cue The Hot Priest asking, 'So, what do you do?' before she can even finish her sentence.The painting falling down when she says she doesn't believe in God. Cue THP shouting, 'I love it when he does that!'The look of realisation when she utters: 'Oh God, I fancy a priest'Fiona Shaw making a guest apperance from Killing Eve as Fleabag's therapist.
